Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Milwaukee/Sullivan WI
314 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

.KEY MESSAGES...

- Heavy rain and severe weather potential late this afternoon
  and this evening. Primary threat will be along/south of I-94.

- Rain continues into tonight, before ending. A few additional
  scattered thunderstorms on Saturday.

- Dry weather expected Monday and early Tuesday, then turning
  warmer and more active mid week.

&&

.SHORT TERM...
Issued 314 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

Rest of this Afternoon through Saturday night:

Showers and thunderstorms have developed early this afternoon
along an elevated frontal boundary, which is stretching from
west to east across the central portion of the forecast area.
Stronger activity so far has been across Iowa and far western
Wisconsin, where instability and lift are stronger.

More substantial, surface based activity is developing across
central and east central Iowa, and this will progress eastward
over the next few hours as well. The severe threat associated
with this activity will largely be tied to the location of the
surface front, which while somewhat defuse, appears to be
located generally just north of the Wisconsin/Illinois state
line. As low pressure over Iowa strengthens and lifts
northeastward, this surface front should end up a little south
of the I-94 corridor by early evening. Mid level lapse rates
across this area will be weak, but substantial low level CAPE
and sufficient 0-3 KM will present a wind and QLCS tornado
threat with any organized, eastward surging line segments. This
threat looks to reach the lakeshore area between 8 and 10 PM,
before pushing east.

In addition to the severe threat, heavy rain remains a concern.
PWATs near 2 inches and a deep sub-freezing cloud layer will
favor very efficient rainfall rates. Individual storms will be
moving, but flooding concerns will ramp up for any areas that
see multiple rounds of convection in a short time.

The strongest convection looks to end by around 10 PM, though
some storms may linger across central Wisconsin, tied to the
location of the meso-low and shortwave. Other scattered showers
may persist overnight.

A few additional scattered thunderstorms are then possible on
Saturday along an advancing cold front. Weak convergence along
the front and poor upper level support suggest scattered
coverage at best, with slightly higher potential (30%) over
central Wisconsin. The front will clear the area by Saturday
evening, with cooler and drier air building into the area.

.LONG TERM...
Issued 314 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

Sunday through Friday:

Sunday looks to be a rather pleasant day, with highs in the low
80s and lower dewpoints. Warmer and more humid conditions return
for Monday, with highs in the mid 80s. Couldn't rule out a brief
shower or two on Monday as a frontal boundary stalls out to our
north, but most locations will remain dry.

Temperatures will be back into the upper 80s on Tuesday, with
dewpoints in the low to mid 70s, as stronger warm advection
overspreads the region. Thunderstorms are then expected to
develop later Tuesday to our north along the aforementioned
front, with periods of showers and storms across the region
Tuesday night and Wednesday, and potentially into Thursday, as
the front wiggles around the area. As is usually the case with
this type of set-up, the timing and location of individual
rounds of showers and storms will be predicated on how earlier
convection evolves, so predictability more than a day or so in
advance is low.

A stronger shortwave will push a more substantial front through
the region late in the week, with cooler and drier high pressure
looking to be favored as we head into next weekend.

.AVIATION...
Issued 314 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

Variable flight conditions are expected through this evening as
rain and thunderstorms affect the region. MVFR and IFR ceilings
and visibility are expected, along with gusty winds. The
strongest storms will end by mid to late evening, though showers
and a few scattered storms will persist overnight, along with
the lower ceilings.

A few additional scattered thunderstorms are expected on
Saturday, mainly during the afternoon hours. Winds will
initially be from the south, turning more westerly with the
passage of a cold front.

Boxell

&&

.MARINE...
Issued 314 PM CDT Fri Jul 11 2025

A broad trough of low pressure averaging 29.7 inches will lift
from Iowa into the northern Great Lakes tonight into Saturday.
Thunderstorms are expected across the lake tonight, some of which
may have strong winds. Winds will be from the south over the
southern half of the lake and from the northeast over the northern
half of the lake through early evening, becoming southerly over
the entire lake overnight. A cold front will then pass through the
lake Saturday afternoon and evening, with winds turning westerly
Saturday night.

High pressure of 30.0 inches will move across the southern tip of
Lake Michigan on Sunday, with winds turning southerly and
southwesterly as the high moves east. Southerly flow is then
expected into at least Monday, before a front becomes stationary
over the central portion of the lake through mid week.
